•■4 Poller of Protoctloul Once more the protectionists of the United States appeal to the Sober sense of the nation to avoid the folly of hearkening to the advice of thaw who counsel a course whose unwisdom baa been demonstrated by p'aat bitter experience. Never waa the need for a dose adherence to principles of protectionism more Imperative than at present In the moment whep the enemies of the system are Insidiously working effect Its destruction the advocate* a home market for American work ere should redouble rather than relax

their efforts.

The assumption that protection baa

completed lu mission because through its cumulating Influence an enormous manufacturing Industry has been built up Iq this country and a symmetrical development given to Its resourceo la utterly erroneous, and Its acceptance by the people would result In untold

disaster to the commonwealth. In the upbuilding of American Indus-

try protection baa so elevated the standard of living In the United States that the working people stand on a higher plane than those of any other nation In the world. It would be perilous to disturb this condition. It cannot be assailed without Involving employer and employed In ruin. Any attempt to low® the standard would be met with a resistance which would paralyse domestic trade and give the

foreigner possession of our markets.

tr Per the Free Trad)

It Is a bud year for tbc free traders. Nothing but a big ‘ > ollapse of our Industries coaid help them to any kind of success, and that would be but temporary and partial. Before they could get a new senate the country would be sick of them and their policy. Abroad they have nothing to Impart them satisfaction. Even If they should upset the Balfour government In the next election, yet that government baa set the precedent of calling their shibboleths Into question and has laid violent hands upon their holy things. Including the memory of Cobden and of Bright It has made its appeal to the national and self defending Instincts of the British people, and that appeal will bear fruit It has driven even the free traders to admit that a government has the right to consider the producer as well as the consumer in Its policy, and that cheapness Is not the Anal goal of all Industrial development Free trade la "damaged goods.•• and It* moat char

Lr free trade Great Britain la admitting the soundness of the contention that the manufacturing capacity of the world vastly exceeds the ability of mankind to effectively consume and while a strong agitation is in progress haring for Its object the protection of British manufacnlrers against the encroachment of rivals It would be passing the bounds of absurdity for Americans to abandon the policy which has safeguarded the Interests of manufacturer and worker to substitute for It a fiscal system which leave* the domestic producer at the mercy of the dump-

Her foremost statesmen recognise the disastrous consequences to their -country from -this course, and they nr»» gradually making the worker comprehend that It Is more vital to him to retain emplqymeot tlinn to secure fancied cheap ness. They will ultimately succeed In their efforts and interpose a tariff which will effectually check the process. The handwriting Is on the walL 1 The cheap loaf gan no longer serves the Cobdenltea a battle cry. The Vallacy thn> free trade made breed more plentiful for the British worker to utterly exploded. It has been proved that the price of wheat waa higher In England after the repeal of the corn law* than before that evert.

"San Antonio ought to he called the city of crickets," *_id a man who baa Just returned to New Orleans from Texas. says the New Orleans Times-Demo-crat, "for 1 hare never found as many crickets anywhere cn earth as I found out there. It to not shuply a case of tha cricket on the hearth. It to a case of th* cricket everywhere you go. I have been trying to figure out why It to that these Insects are ao plentiful In the Texas town In question. At night they swarm around the electric lights like the bugs we are' familiar with In other places. It Is Impossible to walk along the streets without stepping on them.
